An HLLD Implementation for General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics in AthenaK
Jacob Fields, George N. Wong, James M. Stone
We present an implementation of an HLLD approximate Riemann solver for the AthenaK astrophysics code with support for full general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics via a tetrad fr…
Magnetic field dynamics in isolated neutron stars with an external dipole field
Aurora Capobianco, William Cook, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +2
Neutron stars can harbor extremely strong magnetic fields, yet the structure and stability of their magnetic field configuration remain poorly understood. Observations of pulsars i…
Turbulent Dynamo Action in Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Eduardo M. Gutiérrez, David Radice, Jacob Fields +1
We perform general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics zoom-in simulations of the merger of two neutron stars starting with pulsar-like realistic initial magnetic field. We employ un…
AthenaK Simulations of Magnetized Binary Neutron Star Mergers
Jacob Fields, David Radice
We present new numerical-relativity simulations of a magnetized binary neutron star merger performed with AthenaK. The simulations employ a temperature- and composition-dependent t…
Magnetic Field Configurations in Binary Neutron Star Mergers II: Inspiral, Merger and Ejecta
William Cook, Eduardo M. Gutiérrez, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +6
We perform a series of simulations of magnetised Binary Neutron Star mergers, with varying magnetic field topologies in the initial data, as well as varying Equations of State, and…
Investigating the Impact of Higher-Order Phase Transitions in Binary Neutron-Star Mergers
P. Hammond, A. Clevinger, M. Albino +10
In this paper we investigate quark deconfinement in neutrons stars and their mergers, focusing on the effects of higher orders for the phase transition between hadronic and quark m…
Magnetic Flux Emergence in Binary Neutron Star Remnants
Jacob Fields, David Radice, Peter Hammond
Using high-resolution AthenaK simulations of a twisted toroidal flux tube, we study the flux emergence of magnetic structures in the shear layer of a hot massive neutron star typic…
Magnetic Field Configurations in Binary Neutron Star Mergers I: Post-merger Remnant and Disk
Eduardo M. Gutiérrez, William Cook, David Radice +6
We present a suite of general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers performed with the code GR-Athena++. We investigate how a di…
Turbulence in Magnetised Neutron Stars
William Cook, Raj Kishor Joshi, Sebastiano Bernuzzi +2
The magnetic field configuration in the interior of neutron stars and its stability are open problems and may be impacted by the influence of a turbulent cascade within the star. A…
Performance-Portable Binary Neutron Star Mergers with AthenaK
Jacob Fields, Hengrui Zhu, David Radice +4
We introduce an extension to the AthenaK code for general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) in dynamical spacetimes using a 3+1 conservative Eulerian formulation. Like the…
